Volga 70 vs 275

Post by trebek28 »

Looking to buy a 275 or a 70, roughly same 1974 vintage. Both have Volvo drives. I have tried to look into this but can't find much information on them. I found a plan view of the 275.
is the hull the same on the 275 and 70? Same weight?
Only difference i can see is the cabin top. Is that true?
Same size cut out of the deck for passengers?

The 275 has that front curved window. Did the window use to be glass, and I am guessing they are impossible to find. I do really like the lines of the 275.
Does anyone have a plan view of the 70?

Thanks!

Hay,

The 70 had the window and dashboard 1(or 2 i'm not sure) more to the aft.
The hull is the same, and officially the 275 is a 4 person and the 70 a six person.
